* Placement in ballet is based on ability and not age. Therefore, the teachers may shift a dancer between Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced Ballet once they have had a chance to observe their ability and decide what class will best strengthen their dancing. Pre-Pointe and Pointe classes are geared for dancers who have had adequate ballet experience to get up on pointe and participate in the class. Ballet Technique classes are purely technique classes for those who are interested in strengthening their fundamentals of ballet.
** Participation in these classes is by invitation only. For existing SonDance dancers, invitations were extended in the summer. For new dancers to the studio, teachers will extend invitations in October, after a time to observe students and ascertain interest. At registration, please indicate your desire to participate on the competition team. To participate in comp teams, dancers must take the underlying dance discipline class, the technique class and in some cases, ballet.
